Answer:
Scientists seek to eliminate all forms of bias from their research. However, all scientists also make assumptions of a non-empirical nature about topics such as causality, determinism and reductionism when conducting research. Here, we argue that since these 'philosophical biases' cannot be avoided, they need to be debated critically by scientists and philosophers of science.
Explanation:
Scientists are keen to avoid bias of any kind because they threaten scientific ideals such as objectivity, transparency and rationality. The scientific community has made substantial efforts to detect, explicate and critically examine different types of biases (Sackett, 1979; Ioannidis, 2005; Ioannidis, 2018; Macleod et al., 2015). One example of this is the catalogue of all the biases that affect medical evidence compiled by the Centre for Evidence Based Medicine at Oxford University (catalogueofbias.org). Such awareness is commonly seen as a crucial step towards making science objective, transparent and free from bias.
Answer: 1) Maximum mass of ammonia 198.57g
2) The element that would be completely consumed is the N2
3) Mass that would keep unremained, is the one of the excess Reactant, that means the H2 with 3,44g
Explanation:
- In order to calculate the Mass of ammonia , we first check the Equation is actually Balance:
N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⟶2NH3(g)
Both equal amount of atoms side to side.
- Now we verify which reagent is the limiting one by comparing the amount of product formed with each reactant, and the one with the lowest number is the limiting reactant. ( Keep in mind that we use the molecular weight of 28.01 g/mol N2; 2.02 g/mol H2; 17.03g/mol NH3)
Moles of ammonia produced with 163.3g N2(g) ⟶ 163.3g N2(g) x (1mol N2(g)/ 28.01 g N2(g) )x (2 mol NH3(g) /1 mol N2(g)) = 11.66 mol NH3
Moles of ammonia produced with 38.77 g H2⟶ 38.77 g H2 x ( 1mol H2/ 2.02 g H2 ) x (2 mol NH3 /3 mol H2 ) = 12.79 mol NH3
- As we can see the amount of NH3 formed with the N2 is the lowest one , therefore the limiting reactant is the N2 that means, N2 is the element that would be completey consumed, and the maximum mass of ammonia will be produced from it.
- We proceed calculating the maximum mass of NH3 from the 163.3g of N2.
11.66 mol NH3 x (17.03 g NH3 /1mol NH3) = 198.57 g NH3
- In order to estimate the mass of excess reagent, we start by calculating how much H2 reacts with the giving N2:
163.3g N2 x (1mol N2/28.01 g N2) x ( 3 mol H2 / 1 mol N2)x (2.02 g H2/ 1 mol H2) = 35.33 g H2
That means that only 35.33 g H2 will react with 163.3g N2 however we were giving 38.77g of H2, thus, 38.77g - 35.33 g = 3.44g H2 is left
Answer:
The amount of NO₂ that can be produced 8.533 g
Explanation:
According to question
2 NO(g) + O₂(g) → 2 NO₂(g)
Given
Moles of nitrogen monoxide = 0.377
Moles of oxygen = 0.278
Since 'NO' is the limiting reagent according to this ratio.
According to equation
2 moles NO reacts to form 2 moles NO₂
So, 0.1855 moles NO give = 0.1855 moles of NO₂
Mass of 1 mole NO₂ = 46 g/mole
Mass of 0.1855 moles = 46 x 0.1855 = 8.533 g
Answer:
The number of atoms in the gemstones of that tiara is
.
Explanation:
Number of diamonds ion tiara = 888
Mass of each diamond = 1.0 carat = 0.200 g (given)
Mass of 888 diamonds in tiara:

Given that diamond is a form of carbon.
Atomic mass of carbon atom = 12 g/mol
Moles of 77.600 g of carbon =
Number of atoms of carbon 14.800 moles:

The number of atoms in the gemstones of that tiara is
.
